The gas carpet is equipment that is necessary during the laying and operation of the gas pipeline. This element is necessary not only for underground laying, but also for laying communications on the surface. Externally, this element looks like a hatch with a rim. Such hatches may have different diameters. The carpet presented on the gasaquatek.ru website is made from heavy-duty and reliable materials that can withstand even the strongest external influences. After all, this device performs the function of protecting the entire system. Usually the carpet is located near the place where the valves or valves are located. They are also installed in places where large quantities condensation accumulates. The gas carpet must ensure safe and reliable transmission of gas through pipes directly to the consumer himself.
Gas carpets differ in price, as they are made from various materials. Also, the price depends on the diameter of the device. When choosing a carpet, you should be guided by the purposes for which it will be intended, as well as your preferences. The main thing is that the installation of the element is carried out in accordance with all the rules. Its reliable and solid installation plays a very important role, as its use will depend on it. Before you install the carpet, you need to prepare a concrete pad. Its diameter must correspond to the dimensions of the selected element. The base is allowed to be made of polymer. But this is allowed only if you have chosen a carpet made from sand-polymer raw materials.
Purpose of the fixture
Regardless of what the gas carpet is made of and what diameter it has, this element is designed to perform specific functions.
1. It must create an obstacle to any illegal access to the gas pipeline.
2. Protects the entire communication system from corrosion.
3. Also it is installed in order free access workers to the system so that they can maintain the elements of the system, as well as repair them in case of any malfunctions.
4. The cover provides the possibility of installing communications underground.
The gas wall carpet is very durable and reliable. It is equipped with a locking lid, which reliably protects not only the fittings, but the entire system as a whole from intruders. In addition, the carpet provides protection for the system from breakdowns. If it were not there, not only contaminants, but also foreign objects could freely get inside, which could lead to damage and breakage of pipes and other components of the system. Another very important function of the carpet is to provide anti-corrosion protection to the system. It protects it from moisture, ingress precipitation and other factors that can provoke oxidation processes, which will subsequently lead to equipment failure. The presence of a carpet can completely protect the entire system from factors that can cause corrosion.
Maintenance and repair
From time to time there are situations when workers need easy access to equipment. This may be maintenance of its elements or repair in case of a breakdown. To be able to perform work, specialists need to get to the valves and locking elements. thanks to the carpet repair work run more efficiently. It is easier for specialists to work with system elements. And this means that the repair will be faster and better. Usually when laying gas pipes underground there is a place that is often used for laying communications. Workers should also have access to these communications. The carpet provides it to them. Communication with its help can be carried out without preliminary work.
Gas carpet - a detail necessary when laying both ground and underground network gas line. This small hatch with a rim acts as a barrier against external contamination while still providing access for repairs and maintenance. control measurements during the operation of the pipeline.
How to properly use a gas carpet?
In Moscow, as in other Russian cities, the main method of laying the gas pipeline is underground. Gas carpets are used at exit points the most important nodes and close various valves, gate valves and condensate collectors. Carpet gas provides not only protection from damage pipe fittings, hits various pollution and condensate, but also prevents unauthorized entry into the system, as well as gas leakage. The above means that it ensures the safety of conducting gas to the end consumer.
Carpets can be made from a variety of materials. The choice of the part of the desired size will depend on where this device will be used, and on what diameter pipe it will be installed. Today, there are polymer-sand, steel and cast-iron gas carpets. All of them will differ in their quality characteristics have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Cast iron gas carpet: technical specifications
Carpet gas: advantages
The polymer-sand gas carpet is distinguished by its lightness, corrosion resistance, strength, frost resistance and durability. It is made from a special mixture of sand and polyethylene, taken in approximately equal proportions. Steel and cast iron carpets are also different great strength, but cannot boast of high resistance to moisture, negative temperatures and other atmospheric influences. Over time, the material of such a carpet may undergo corrosive changes, which may threaten the safety of using the gas pipeline. This is why gas carpets need regular inspection, occasional painting, and replacement when necessary.
Polymer sand caps require less maintenance and effort. In addition, products made of steel and cast iron are much heavier than their polymer counterparts. Gradually accessories from modern materials replacing more familiar cast-iron and steel counterparts. Although, for the protection of gas valves and fittings, cast-iron carpets are most often used. Gas carpets also differ in their dimensions - height and diameter, and can be used on pipes of various diameters.
Gas carpet installation
The gas carpet is installed on a concrete pad or on a base made of a more modern polymer material, in the case of a polymer-sand carpet. At the beginning, a discharge pipe is installed, after which the base itself is mounted on the compacted soil. Experts recommend installing the outlet tube in the center of the carpet so that it is perpendicular to its base. All the space around it is covered with sandy soil. Remember that the distance between the outlet and the cover of the carpet must be at least 10 cm. After installation, the location of the gas carpet is marked with a wall marker, which is fixed at a height of at least 2 meters.
Apart from gas carpets various sizes, you can purchase any accessories for gas equipment, as well as accessories for household gas appliances and spare parts included in internal organization gas boiler, gas stove etc.
Gas carpet is a product or device that provides access to shutoff valves located underground, which serves as protection underground pipeline.
The gas carpet refers to special pipeline equipment, which is designed for a complete cycle of equipping a gas pipeline. It provides access to measurement, control and regulation equipment that is underground.
Inside the carpet are:
- control nodes,
- gate valves,
- Drainage tubes for hydraulic locks,
- condensate collectors,
- Polyethylene Ball Valves with telescopic extensions (water, gas), etc.
Water carpets practically do not differ from gas ones. Therefore, they are suitable for water and gas pipelines, respectively.
Gas carpet is a cylindrical dome with a cover made of steel, cast iron, sand-polymer mixture or polymer materials.
According to GOST, the gas carpet is produced in the following sizes:
- 159 mm - small,
- 325 mm - large,
as well as 217 and 273 mm.
Despite the relative simplicity of the design, quite high requirements are imposed on carpets. GOST 1412-85 regulates the maximum load for each type of carpet.
Lightweight carpets: designed for installation in pedestrian areas and on sidewalks, designed for a load of not more than 1.5 tons.
Large carpets: permissible dynamic load for steel or cast iron carpet up to 25 tons.
For carpets made of polymer-sand or polymer, the same standards apply as for metal or cast iron.
The gas carpet is used in the gas industry, when laying a gas pipeline, to provide access to service and control components of underground shut-off valves. The product does not require special maintenance, care or repair, it can withstand loads from 5 to 25 tons.
Our catalog contains models made of high-quality steel, grade 20 and polymer-sand material, which comply with all GOST standards. Carpet D325 with a molded rim withstands heavy loads, can be built into highways, roads. If a non-standard height is required, we take custom-made production.
Purpose of equipment
Each gas and pipeline has control units, locking valves, pipes for condensate drainage. To protect the equipment from unauthorized access, possible damage, sediment pollution, use a gas carpet. It serves as a kind of casing with a lid that can be locked with a special key, which ensures the safety of the gas pipeline.
It is made from the following materials:
- Cast iron
- Steel
- Polymer
Cast iron has been used since the beginning of carpet production. It is heavy, has inert properties, but is quite fragile, not resistant to shock loads. A steel gas carpet, unlike a cast iron one, is plastic, impact-resistant, and lighter in weight. Inexpensive cost, excellent characteristics make it one of the most popular on the market.
It is this equipment that is recommended to be installed by repairmen of gas facilities. Polymer is produced relatively recently, but has already shown its excellent performance characteristics. Plastic is much lighter than cast iron and steel - its weight is from 8 kg. It does not rust, is resistant to impacts, does not require painting to protect against moisture, perfectly withstands high and low temperatures.
On the ILART website, the equipment is presented in the assortment:
- Carpet gas large reinforced steel, with cast rim and lid.
